Abstract: A system for controlling access to a restricted-access area in a building has a sliding door system and a controller for the sliding door system. The sliding door system has a door frame and a sliding door which can be moved in the door frame between a closed position and an open position by a drive unit. The door frame has a passage region and a wall shell region which at least partially accommodates the sliding door in the open position. A controller is arranged on the sliding door and is communicatively connected to the drive device. The controller is designed to control a movement of the sliding door between the closed position and an open position. A light projection device is arranged in an interior of the sliding door and is communicatively connected to the controller. The light projection device is designed to project status information specified by the controller for a user requesting access to the restricted-access area as a visible light projection onto a projection surface.

Abstract: The invention relates to a system for controlling access to a restricted area in a building, which system has a sliding door system and a controller for the sliding door system. The sliding door system has a door frame and a sliding door which can be displaced by a drive unit actuated by the controller. The door frame has a passage region and a wall shell region which accommodates the sliding door in the open position. The sliding door has an end face which points toward the passage region in the open position. The controller has a processor unit and a sensor unit, the sensor unit is arranged on the end face and the processor unit is arranged between the door leaves. A recognition device captures and checks credentials presented by a user. If the credentials are valid, a record is determined in a storage device, in which the credentials are assigned to an opening width (W) of the sliding door, in order to trigger the movement of the sliding door according to said opening width (W).

Abstract: A mail delivery assistance system comprises a letterbox for receiving mail consignments that has an opening and an electronic locking mechanism, a data processing device that comprises a database having an address file in which a respective addressee is associated with a building address, and a reader for capturing mail consignment data of a mail consignment. The reader, during operation, is communicatively connected to the data processing device in order to send the mail consignment data to the data processing device. The data processing device checks whether the mail consignment data match an addressee in the address file, and, if this is the case, generates a control signal for the locking mechanism in order to open the opening and to allow delivery of the mail consignment.

Abstract: An access control system receives a device-specific identifier of a mobile electronic device and an electronic reference template for facial parameters of a user. The reception takes place when the mobile device is located in a public zone, from which the user can request access to an access-restricted zone. A memory unit stores the identifier of the mobile device and the reference template, which are received by a transmitting and receiving unit, as belonging to the user present in a public zone. An image processing unit generates a real-time template for facial features of the user based on an image of the user when the user requests access to the access-restricted zone. It determines if the real-time template matches a reference template stored in the memory unit to a defined degree, wherein the user is recognized as an access-requesting user in the event of a match.

Abstract: A sliding door horizontally displaceable between two building wall elements includes a door leaf support frame with an attached door leaf, whereby a distance, perpendicular to a displacement direction of the support frame, between the door leaf and the support frame is changeable between an open position of the door leaf between the wall elements and a closed position of the door leaf in a door opening of one of the wall elements with outer surfaces of the door leaf and wall in alignment. A control element is movable in the displacement direction relative to the support frame and cooperates with a closing edge of the opening to increase and decrease the distance between the door leaf and the door leaf support frame during the closing and opening respectively in a region adjacent the closing edge.

Abstract: An access control system receives a device-specific identifier of a mobile electronic device. A memory device stores the identifier as belonging to a user present in a public zone. An image processing device generates from a camera image produced by a camera a real-time template for facial features of the user present when the user present requests access to an access-restricted zone, and searches user profiles stored in a database for a reference template that matches the real-time template to a specified degree, wherein a user profile is searched only if it is assigned to a present user based on a stored identifier, wherein in the case of a match, the system grants the user access to the access-restricted zone and denies access when there is no match.

Abstract: A mobile electronic device receives a data signal with a lock identifier and a lock state designator when it is in radio range of the electronic lock. The mobile device generates a server message which comprises the lock identifier, the lock state designator and a device identifier. The mobile electronic device sends the server message to the data processing device which stores a state of the electronic lock based on an evaluation of the lock state designator. The data processing device generates a confirmation message which contains an electronic code to activate the electronic lock when the electronic lock is in an inactive state and the device identifier in the user file is assigned to the lock identifier and which contains a user message when the electronic lock is in the active state or the user has no access authorization to the access-restricted zone assigned to the electronic lock.

The call input device further includes a storage medium and an output region. During operation, when the directional call button is actuated, instructions for call input by a user stored in the storage medium are output in the output region.

Abstract: A metal drilling tool comprising includes a middle axis, a front side and an opposite end, with at least two cutting edges arranged in a region of the front side, a first free surface being associated with each cutting edge. The at least two cutting edges lie on an imaginary first conical surface arranged concentrically in relation to the middle axis, with a first conical angle that opens up towards the opposite end and reaches a maximum of 180°. A centering section includes at least three edges, at least three side surfaces and an imaginary base surface. At least two of the edges lie on an imaginary second conical surface which is arranged concentrically in relation to the middle axis and has a second conical angle that opens up towards the opposite end. The second conical angle is smaller than the first conical angle, such that the imaginary second conical surface, seen from the opposite end, projects opposite the front surface.

Abstract: In an access control system, a registration procedure for a visitor is implemented to control access to an access-restricted zone in a building or a site. At the invitation of a host, the visitor sends a digital image, an invitation identification number and a device-specific identifier of the electronic device of the visitor to the access control system. The image data and the identifier are assigned to a visitor profile previously created for the visitor by means of the identification number of the invitation. The image data are processed by the access control system to generate a reference template, the reference template being stored in the visitor profile.

Abstract: A destination call, as an example of an action, is automatically generated in an elevator system when detected current connection data correspond to a stored behavior pattern for the usage of the elevator system. A communicative link between a sensor in a sensor system that comprises a multitude of sensors and the mobile electronic device of a passenger is detected, and connection data about the communicative link are recorded. The connection data are compared with data stored in a memory device containing at least one behavior pattern in order to determine whether the connection data correspond to a stored behavior pattern.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for checking an access authorization to a building and/or a facility.
